I had an opportunity to setup a friend’s new laptop:
-10.7.4 Mac Apps download with Unibeast onto 8GB Drive
-Removed original windows drive, installed OCZ Agility 3 180GB, no firmware update as already with >2.05.
-Loaded Unibeast onto my spare 20GB Partition (of already working HACK system, GA-P67).
-Restart and get back to my already functioning GA-P67 hack.
-Format the SSD into two partition with MBR (165GB as main OSX/15GB as Backup)
-CCC the just fresh installed 10.7.4 onto both partition.
-Put SSD into Fujitsu laptop.
-Boot with rBoot and boot into 165GB OSX
-Hook up USB keyboard and setup
-Do Show All Files.
-Copy over Unibeast Extra folder onto 165GB OSX
-Ran Multibeast: System Utilities, TRIM Support, Linix2Mac Ethernet, and Bootloader.
-Restart without issue.
-Kextbeast the ALC269 from OSx86 (search: LH531), Voodoo Audio. 2.7.2 from MB crashed one time.
-Kept the raw 10.7.4 on 15GB partition just in case if I want to get clone back.
-HD3000 just works stragith out of Unibeast/rBoot, closing the lid turned off screen / not sleep.
-Shutdown / Restart works. Ctrl+Alt+Del
(Don’t care: found USB built-in camera, card reader, d-sub connection for external connection, sleep never wakes up – set to never sleep it, intel 6205 wireless)
-Tried a few hours on getting the 64bits, but always get 64bits Kernel Extension = No. Probably because extra folder was copied from Unibeast drive.
-handed back the laptop and he was happy enough.

Regarding my initial Unibeast directly on Laptop using GUID partition, installed more than 20 times, bootloader never comes up, was able to boot with rBoot/Unibeast drive. Spending two nights alone on this issue was enough to cut it.

I hope this info helps someone.

Be specific about the error you are encountering...

Please provide complete details in your profile.

System: manufacturer/model
CPU: detailed CPU model + motherboard chipset
Graphics: all graphics devices + laptop internal screen resolution

For example, typical Ivy laptop:
System: HP ProBook 4540s
CPU: i5-3320m/HM76
Graphics: HD4000, 1366x768

Use CPU-Z on Windows to find CPU (Core iX-xxx) and motherboard chipset (HMxx). For a laptop, these details are important and affect critical installation procedures.
 
Fujitsu Lifebook LH531 (Unibeast, 10.7.4, MBR - Satisfactory Success, Updated to Mavericks)

This LH531 is REDONE with Mavericks because I forgot the password on LION after a while!!!

-Fujitsu LH531 laptop will not boot with GUID partitioned Hard Drive / SSD. It will just skip to next USB or ethernet.
-Unibeast 10.9.2 USB loading will stuck at: Transcript Offline - Buffer Pool Allocate [181000] failed. (HD3000 issue).

-I used my Z77-UD5H with 3570K desktop and a spare SSD. Partitioned this spare SSD into 1 Partition, GUID, Mac OS Extended (Journalded), named this drive as GUID.
-Boot Unibeast 10.9.2 on my desktop.
-Inside the installer, select the GUID drive. Power off and disconnect the GUID drive upon RESTART. Do not let it boot back to on the desktop.
-Insert the GUID drive into Fujitsu LH531, boot with F12 to get to Unibeast USB.
-Select the GUID drive on Chemeleon.
-Should boot into desktop and finalize the installation. Display HD3000 should be working.
-Connect the USB keyboard and USB Mouse.
-Run Multibeast 6.2.1. Select Easy Beast with only a)PS/2 Keyboard/Mice and Trackpads, b)1080p display, and c) select Macbook Pro 8,1.
-Change Graphics Mode of org.chameleon.Boot.plist to 1366x768x32.
-Reboot to verify still working.
-Shutdown, remove the GUID drive from laptop.

-Connect the GUID drive and Fujitsu drive onto desktop and boot into my desktop. GUID and Fujitsu were just spare drives.
-Partition the Fujitsu Drive as Master Boot Record. (I created two partitions using Mac OS Extended (Journalded): Fujitsu and Backup with 25GB)
-Carbon Copy Clone (Everything) from the GUID to Fujitsu. Leave Backup as Blank.
-Disconnect and install the Master Boot Record partitioned drive (Fujitsu/Backup) into laptop.

-Boot it again with F12 into Unibeast USB.
-Select the cloned Fujitsu drive.
-Should boot into desktop without any flags.
-Run Multibeast again. Install only Bootloader\Chimera v2.2.1 only.
-Remove Unibeast USB and it should boot by itself!!!
-Now I Carbon Copy Clone Fujitsu to Backup partition before screwing around with anything else.

Run Multibeast again with following installed and restart:
Driver\Audio\VoodooHDA v2.7.3
Driver\Disk\TRIM Enabler 10.9.x TRIM Patch (for SSD)
Driver\Network\Realtek - Lnx2Mac's v0.0.90

VoodooHDA other versions crashed but this 2.7.3 should be working. But it is with loud background noise. Copy VoodooHDA kext onto desktop. Open the info.plist and change iGain from 90 to 0 and restart. Also changed Noise from 2 to 0.

Fixing NullCPU, Louder Speaker, SLEEP will need more sleep.
